About fish and chip van hire in GU25
Keep it simple, or plan every detail: a van that serves as people arrive, or service at a set time. We’ll suggest what suits your event. Typical bookings include staff thank-you lunches and fish and chip days at care homes, serving mushy peas, pie and chips and curry sauce.
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, we simply start frying a little later, so the food is still fresh when it’s served.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

A fish and chip van across GU25: what to know
GU25 covers everything from Virginia Water, Trumps Green and Wentworth to 4 small villages and hamlets, and a chip van suits every kind of setting. In towns, plan parking and access; in villages, tell us about lanes and ground.
Virginia Water: A green space like Riverside Walk is tempting, but a catering van there needs the landowner’s say-so, generally the council’s. After a service at Christ Church, the van can be waiting at a nearby hall or house. Late September evenings in Virginia Water lose the light at about 7:05pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the van makes a difference.

Is a fish and chip van right for you?
A big takeaway order arrives late and lukewarm. The van cooks right there, so the batter is still crisp.

Before you choose a spot
Plenty of places work for the van, but there are a few things to check:
- Flat, firm ground for the van
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- A clear area by the serving hatch

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.
Diets, allergies and planning
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Count children separately
- Keep the menu short to keep the queue moving
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Have bins and napkins near the hatch
A short menu keeps service quick, especially when everyone wants to eat at once.
Let everyone know when the food is ready.
Common questions in GU25
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Can the van park on grass?
Typically, if it is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Can we choose cod or haddock?
We serve cod and haddock; tell us which you’d like for your event.
How do you handle allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Send us any allergies in writing.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear the van’s area after service. Let us know about bins for guests.
What if we only have street parking?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.
Does a chip van work for big events?
Often, yes. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan it with you.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
